Is working in a supermarket satisfying...?
I was rather surprise to find a couple of responses to a Reddit Thread for 'what are some easy, stress free jobs'..? to suggest that working in a supermarket was a good idea...
They cited the fact that most colleagues were decent and most of the customers were OK to chat to as well, and if you got shelf-stacking duties then you could just listen to audio books all day!
The only downside mentioned was the 'lack of status', but honestly who gives a toss.
NB what I am thinking about here are post-career easy jobs where you can just rock up 2-3 days a week and get paid without making too much effort!
And fair play I get it, supermarkets do seem to fit that bill.
But low job satisfaction...?
I looked through a fairly hench piece of research which ranked 300 jobs by happiness, and the nearest I could find was shelf-stackers, near the bottom end! And quite near delivery drivers which is a crap job, for sure!
Not encouraging!
And it varies by supermarket!
The Grocery Gazette (that's one for Have I Got News For You!) reports considerable variation in worker satisfaction depending on supermarket....
And those satisfaction ratings in the 60s for the main part are not encouraging, you'd really want high 70s to 80s for this.
I guess the problem with the job is that it is what it is, a job, you're never going to 'see yourself' in it, unless you rise up the ranks and become a regional manager or something, and that would just be TOTALLY depressing!
Final thoughts.... could I work in a supermarket...?
Hmmm, I did work in an ASDA warehouse for a few days when I was a student, it was punishing and I didn't have much to talk about with the staff, and then if you are front of house these days there's a good chance you'll get put on the self-checkouts, that's a thankless looking job, especially judging by the two lads who were doing that in Tesco this morning, they looked like they were competing with each other for who could look the most bored.
So for me, I get that this isn't particularly stressful, but I think I'll skip this particular job, it's not for me!

The thing is, people are known for being ingrates. If a job is stress free one should be grateful. Even if it's boring, the fact that it is stress free has to weigh a great lot.
It's an underrated thing in work I think!
You know, if you're in retirement age and want to have something to do part-time, I'm sure it's not bad. I've thought about having a plant nursery as my retirement project :)
I've thought about that myself, a little hobby income!
Not sure how they compare financially, but I'd probably go for the social research interviewing over working in a supermarket if I needed a bit of dosh/something to get me out of a rut.
If money isn't an issue, then a little light volunteering.
No Kwiksave? I could could tell you stories...
At Bilpcoin, we're committed to helping and supporting people, not abusing them. We're burning as many BPC tokens as we can. We ask, why doesn't anyone do anything about these bad downvotes on Hive?

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out
We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues
lol the Marky mark keeps dreaming
There's been a notable increase in frustration and concern among many users
Reply 2 @crimsonclad You may consider yourself clever

Consider revising the value plan, as it's not providing significant benefits to HIVE
The Value Plan, as it stands, seems to be a one-sided relationship with the HIVE platform, where the benefits are one-way
Actions indeed speak louder than words, a fact we've all observed individuals may talk a good game, a whole lot of shit, but their actions often expose their genuine nature LOL
We consider it unwise to engage in harmful actions, even if you think you can escape the repercussions

The Hive Police aka Hivewatchers, are the real heroes of Hive LOL, aren't they?
Feast your eyes on Hive's trending page, what a load of trash
LoL it's the Hivewatchers Hive Police, dishing out orders like a bakery LOL! Folks, do what you want with your Hive power, just as you please. And you, Hivewatchers, downvote away, but remember, judgment day's coming
Harry fam We're just here, laughing at the shenanigans on Hive! Sure, our content's getting downvoted, but hey, it's all part of the game LOL

On Hive, there's a user who frequently burns a significant amount of Hive LOL with his own accounts
How To Fool An Entire Population
it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content
We began sharing factual information following unwarranted downvotes on Hive it's all in the transactions
Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content
Once again, we ask why is our legit content being downvoted on Hive and what is the reason behind it. Hivewatchers ADM spaminator steemcleaners guiltyparties logic
We have Hive witnesses farming Hive, self-voting, operating comment farms, and self-funding projects with community resources

Downvoters we've got to ask, what's the joy in downvoting, huh? It just shows how down in the dumps you are! Remember, Themarkymark himself has been downvoted in the past
Funny seeing how much power a Hiver with mental health issues wields! And talk about support, Blocktrades is like his trusty sidekick LOL
Many question the impact of downvoting and the role of certain Top Hivers, including Themarkymark who abuses his power, many express disappointment about the lack of response from those in positions of authority NO HELP.

Buildawhale downvoting good content, self-voting comments powering down funds that are then sent to Ipromote and then the alpha account controlled by Blocktrades' wife doesn't look good and raises questions about the transparency and fairness of Hive.

I did this for almost a decade in my youth. I wouldn't say it was terrible, but it has ever since not been high on my list of jobs to do. 🙂
working in a supermarket is a shit job, just as @slobberchops says!!
